Real historians look at all the evidence, not merely what a politician campaigning for office says.  The following is a list of evidence indicating that Obama is a Muslim:

*In early 2016, Obama refused to attend '''''both''''' of the [[Christian]] funeral services for Justice [[Antonin Scalia]] and the former [[First Lady]] [[Nancy Reagan]] - "[s]ome Muslim legal scholars assert that attending the funeral of a non-Muslim friend or relative can be wholly consistent with Islamic principles."<ref>http://people.opposingviews.com/haram-attend-nonmuslim-funerals-7543.html</ref>

*Obama stated that the ''Autobiography of [[Malcolm X]]'', which was co-written by Alex Haley, inspired him in his youth.<ref>For example, Obama writes in his own autobiography, "Only Malcolm X's autobiography seemed to offer something different. His repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me. The blunt poetry of his words, his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order, martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force of will. ... [E]ven as I imagine myself following Malcolm's call, one line in the book stayed with me. He spoke of a wish he'd once had, the wish that the white blood that ran through him, there by an act of violence, might somehow be expunged."[http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/04/does_obama_know_america.html]</ref>
